The age of patients ranged from 17 to 45 years.  Results: Clinical improvement in most of cases which was in the form of improvement of texture, pigmentation and decrease of length and width of stretch marks. Conclusion: Microneedling is safe, simple and effective method in treatment of stretch marks .
